Chapter 165 The Whitebeard Pirates Move
New World Dressrosa: The King's Heroes
"The Knights of God! The Five Elders! My damned people, your foundation is truly formidable!!"
"What kind of monster is behind that black teleportation array?! Is it a national treasure?!"
Doflamingo held the newspaper in both hands, his expression shifting between light and shadow, his pupils trembling beneath his pink sunglasses.
He should have belonged to this powerful race of gods!
but why!
Why can't he return to the Holy Land?!
He personally carried his father's head back to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, but was ruthlessly rejected by those bastard tribesmen.
This caused him to lose his status as a descendant of God forever.
If I'm not having a good time, you won't be either!
I will definitely bring you all down from your pedestals.
We're all heading towards destruction!
Doflamingo grinned hysterically and laughed maniacally, unleashing a violent burst of Conqueror's Haki.
"Luo Ji... The World Pirates! The Five Emperors! Are they going to attack the pirate allied nations and the Seven Warlords of the Sea?!"
Doflamingo's face darkened, because his Dressrosa, with him as the king of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, was also considered a pirate alliance.
Does that mean he has two layers of buffs?
Could he be the next target of the Luo Ji World Group?
Thinking about this, Doflamingo felt a little sad.
Being targeted by Luo Ji is not good news.
He desperately wanted to cooperate with Luo Ji in the underground world because he also wanted to see Luo Ji's World Group deal with the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
However, the Luo Ji World Team is no match for the World Government at present, and Doflamingo does not want to lose the prestigious title of King of the Member State and Shichibukai for the time being.
He desperately wanted to find a balance to please both sides, wanting Luo Ji to cause trouble for the Five Elders, but also not wanting to be targeted by Luo Ji.
"I wonder if we can use Kaido's influence to prevent the Luo Ji Pirates from attacking Dressrosa. Ideally, we could promote cooperation between the Beasts Pirates and the Luo Ji Pirates to fight the World Government together."
Otherwise, infighting among the Five Emperors would only make those damned Celestial Dragons happier.
Doflamingo's forehead veins bulged; he was now like a fish on a chopping board, with virtually no say in the matter.
Fortunately, he collaborated with Caesar to create artificial Devil Fruits and successfully connected with the Beasts Pirates.
“Young Master, it’s a bit inefficient to care for those artificial Devil Fruit trees manually.”
Caesar suggested using the dwarfs to tend the fruit, which would increase the success rate several times over.
After Doflamingo's Conqueror's Haki subsided, Monet, with her green hair, walked in from outside and reported Caesar's requests and suggestions like a secretary.
"Lilliputians?!"
Upon hearing this, Doflamingo's forehead veins bulged again.
Back when Luo Ji came to Dressrosa, he not only stole Baby 5, but also warned him not to covet the Dwarfs.
The Luo Ji World Crew already intends to take action against the pirate allied nations and the Seven Warlords of the Sea. If Doflamingo also targets the Tontatta tribe, wouldn't that be handing Luo Ji a knife?
"Send more ordinary members and toys to take care of the Demon Fruit Tree first, and don't touch the little people for now."
Doflamingo said with great annoyance, "Without dealing with the threat of Luo Ji, the Donquixote Family will not be able to develop properly."
How can I both cooperate with Luo Ji and retain my status as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?
It seems we need to have deeper exchanges and cooperation with Queen the Plague, and even Kaido the Beasts.
They would be willing to give up even more benefits.
Now, the only option is to exchange benefits for safety and obtain the full protection of the Beasts Pirates.
With the protection of the Beasts Pirates and both the legitimate and illegitimate sides of the World Government, they should be qualified to negotiate and engage in discussions with Luo Ji.
Ideally, Luo Ji should also know that Doflamingo is a pirate who also deeply hates the Celestial Dragons.
After Doflamingo had arranged the artificial Devil Fruits, he unexpectedly received a special mission from the Five Elders.
The Five Elders demanded that he, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, find an opportunity to kill Big News Morgans.
"Foohoo! It seems Morgans has really angered these old monsters!"
Doflamingo agreed to the Five Elders' mission via Den Den Mushi, but he wasn't about to do something so thankless.
He also wanted to see Morgans continue to disgust the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
He decided to just go through the motions, go through the motions, and deal with the Five Elders' so-called 'mandatory mission'.
···
On a bustling red-light district on an island in the New World.
Stussy, the queen of Pleasure Street and a spy within a spy, also received orders from the Five Elders to assassinate Morgans, a fellow underground tycoon.
After Stussy closed the Den Den Mushi, his respectful expression instantly turned cold.
She was originally the first successful cloning subject in Vegapunk's MADS cloning experiment. Later, following Vegapunk's orders, she infiltrated the World Government's CP organization and rose to the rank of CP0.
Later, he was banished to the underground dark world by the World Government. With the World Government's covert help, he became one of the underground dark emperors, collecting more secret intelligence for the World Government.
Of course, Stussy's most important task was to earn more research funding for Vegapunk, the creator, and to keep Vegapunk informed, making him one of Vegapunk's few eyes and ears.
"This task is extremely difficult!"
Stussy was a little helpless. These underground dark emperors rarely met except to attend the Big Mom Pirates' tea party and some very important negotiation meetings.
Moreover, Morgans has recently become very afraid of death, and even the headquarters of his news agency has been frequently relocating.
This made it even harder for Stussy to find Morgans' whereabouts.
"We can only take it one step at a time and proceed slowly."
Stussy temporarily put aside this difficult task and focused on completing other tasks, such as gathering intelligence on the Luo Ji Pirates.
As it turned out, this task was ridiculously difficult.
The entire CP organization can't find the Luo Ji Pirates, and neither can she.
"Dr. Vegapunk needs some rare memory metal to create some clones."
Stussy murmured softly, "This task is still achievable. The North Sea Vinsmoke family should still have this rare metal. We can try to buy it or make a plan."
"Huh? The Whitebeard Pirates have actually left their territory?"
Stussy received a report from a girl in the entertainment district, and it felt a bit strange.
As the most 'peaceful' of the Four Emperors, the aging Whitebeard has hardly made any major moves in recent years, seemingly having entered retirement mode.
Now that we've left our own territory, is something big about to happen?
"Whitebeard is terminally ill and on IV drips every day. He probably won't be able to cause any more big incidents."
Stussy dropped the information; Whitebeard's illness was hardly a secret in the underground underworld.
After all, the Whitebeard Pirates' IV drips, medicines, oxygen tanks... these things are all goods from the underground dark world, and a large part of them are even produced or handled by the Donquixote Family.
Even Sengoku, the Buddha, after learning about Whitebeard's general situation, had been wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to make a move against this aging "leader of the Four Emperors" and bring a great victory to the Navy.
It's just that we haven't found an opportunity to take action yet.
